Salute from the Shore, a nonprofit organization, was founded in 2010 by patriotic South Carolinians to honor the armed forces on Independence Day.

The focal point of the Salute from the Shore has traditionally been a flyover of military aircraft and has evolved to include volunteer pilots of privately owned vintage military aircraft with veterans and active-duty military aboard.

This year, Salute from the Shore will include a flyover of vintage military aircraft and F-16s from the South Carolina Air National Guard’s 169th Fighter Wing at McEntire Joint National Guard Base.

The flyover will begin at 1 p.m. in Cherry Grove and conclude over the May River Sandbar in Bluffton around 1:25 p.m.

The vintage military aircraft will be visible over South Carolina’s beaches shortly after the F-16s. Refer to the website for exact timing as various factors will determine when the aircraft arrive at different locations along the coast.
